a sketch of Handsome Residence.

A Sketch oil handsome INesiueh'o'
The Washington Post of last Sunday
had a well written article with the cap
ton among the Architects" In this
is mentioned some half dozen of the most
handsome and most costly houses now
being erected in the National Capital.
Considerable space is given to that OF
Colonel Robert |. Fleming, at No. 1918
Twelfth street, northwest. The sketch
is illustrated with several cuts of the
building. The article closes as follows ;
altogether Colonel Fleming's house
is as complete and as perfect in all its APP
pointments as any one could wish, and
there will be many compliments bestowed
upon it when he and Mrs. Fleming give
a house warming next month"
Colonel Fleming is an old Richmond
boy, and was gallant lieutenant in the
Fayette artillery during the war. He
has thus far made the largest donation
to the Confederate Soldiers Home-the
beautiful Fleming wing. Richmond will
be represented at the house warming,
and all of his old friends and comrades
wish him and his wife long life and a
happy one

Monument to Pickett.

While Picketts Executive Committee
on the Reunion is still in existence, it
might be well for them to take some step
towards starting a fund to erect monu-
ment to the memory of their immortal
leader.
His grave at Hollywood is unmarked,
and at times neglected. Some kind OF a
memorial should be erected, however
humble; and it is hoped that at Gettys-
burg, or before the reunion, that an eff
fort will be made to raise fund for the
marking in monumental marble OF the
man who led the deathless division over
the slaughter field of Gettysburg.

to-day and fluctuations heavy. Opening was
threc-quarters higher at S3i for May sold up
to s4i dropped back to S3i again bniged to

The advance is wholly due to manipua-
ton. AS exports are not so heavy and foreign
markets do not respond to our advance.
Tributary markets do not sympathize, New

Too Much Mesmerlsn.

Special to the lndianapolia Journal.
ELKHART, March l0.-Elkhart is undergoing
an ordeal Of mesmerism. A few weeks ago two
intinerant professors of the occult art came
here and began giving public exhibitions, which
have been continued up to the present time, and
have captured the town. But so common has
the science become that it is now practiced by
many of the men of the place, and is SO much in
vogue among the boys that it is recognized as a
public nuisance, and the school authorities have
peremptorily ordered, under severe penalty, its
discontinuance among pupils. 1t has greatly
interferee with the school work. as those who
practice the art give themselves to it to the ex
elusion of everything else, and several of the
subjects have been seriously injured by being
constantly subjected to the influence of their
comrades. There is considerable public feeling
over the matter, and the newspapers denounce
the craze very strongly
